Guess who caught the hoax?

Sarah Palin and her family.

Fish on...

Todd

Did she believe it to be a hoax?

What is most comical are the people who actually think the virus is a “hoax” then get the virus.

Kind of like people who point fingers at the opposite political party and fail to recognize the failures of their own or ignore them completely.

-FishDam

Ah yes the "they are both the same" horseshit.
If you ever went to college you might try contacting them to get your money back.

All three of the universities that I attended were not only politically left leaning in nature, but provided courses that taught and discussed the depth of corruption in government and with the major political parties. College can be a great place to learn. You should try it.

-FishDam

Cloth, or an actual N95 mask?

Simple cloth masks are for the low IQ deniers. At least it marginally helps other people.

Hey Fatso,

Just cause you have good grammar doesn’t make you smart.


Hope that helps.

Lewis county is not a good source of medical advice.

natural selection

Classic Palin family brawl story: https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguar...l-police-report

It didn’t help, line cook.

Even added the good spelling part lol. Get back to burning hamburgers for your moco locos, ‘chef’

Your struggles here are amusing.

Don't stop.

....have you seen my baseball?

Yo, Idaho.....you need a nice avatar pic.

You're welcome.

You guys see rattled.

-FishDam

If only my spelling was as good as yours Coming Soon. What did you do to become so smart?

-FishDam

Skilled labor! The only thing you’ve ever done that was skilled was the rotten chum photo shop. And that was years ago, all that weed made you stupid. Be more funny.

I think it’s also a degree of being socially awkward. He’s a nice guy in person but a little strange, and definitely different than he presents himself online.

-FishDam

Is "He" everyone here?

You see like a welcher.
The whole idea of the bet was to shut one of us up, you lost but you are still here.
Why?
Oh that's right you are a fvcking welcher.

He doesn't seem socially awkward to me at all.

Frequent spewing of garbage out of your mouth voids the agreement so that you can be told when you need to STFU.

This is the darkside, bruh. Not many rules. Can’t handle the heat then leave. It’s not like you contribute much of anything except whining and surface level interpretations.

You really seem to enjoy complaining. Always about something. Am I right? I at least give you credit when you say something remotely interesting or accurate, which happens to be approximately 2% of the time.

-FishDam

The only reason you don't find him funny is because you are the butt of most of his jokes, either that, or... you're not smart enough to get the humor.

Too bad the pole guy isn't here anymore, he'd get to the bottom of this.

Jake is a good fisherman from what I can tell. I’ve never seen him catch a fish personally but it’s pretty obvious he knows his stuff. The guy seems like he’s a decent chef too. Everyone has their strengths.

-FishDam

Jake is an asshole but I would be fine to fish with him. We get along better when talking sh!t. Stam though fuk that guy. Old fuk body shop shilling loser.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

lol

Finally a big Dark Side dust-up that I'm not right in the middle of!



If everyone on the Dark Side doesn't hate you, you should try harder. lol

Put the beer over on my side.

I solve problems. I do that.

Alaska sucks.

You sure seem to enjoy reminiscing on our day together. Kind of weird man.

-FishDam

Not really. I remember the day and have a different interpretation of things, however I am not the one trying to save face and appear normal to impress people on an Internet forum. But it’s okay. It seems like a few here still tolerate you, myself included. It’s all good.

-FishDam

Sounds like something a bet welcher would say.

lol

You are correct, I wear a mask to prevent me from giving it to someone else.

Hey, I own it my little friend. No denying it here. I would expect no less from Shillshe if the shoe was on the other foot. The bet only provides more ammunition. He won this time.

-FishDam

But you are still here spewing the same old tired crap.
You made a bet that if you lost you would leave, you lost and you are still here.
This shows what low moral standards you live by, your word means nothing.

Not really. But nice try. This is the darkside. It is different than real life. Clearly...

-FishDam

So you are going to blow a bum and move in with Evo?
As far as I can see welching is one of the few things that are not tolerated on the Darkside.
Kinda makes you famous in a bad way.
Welchers are bottom feeders, but we already knew that.

Not exactly.

From all the studies done on other diseases and airborne particulates, it's been shown that wearing the correct mask helps both parties.

Recent studies on particulate dispersal while speaking, coughing, sneezing, etc, show it is reduced with a face covering. The better the face covering the better the result.

The bandana, the mask of choice for the low IQ, was the least effective, but did sort of help depending on the thread count. But those that don't know where their nose is, or how to cover it, make the bandana even less effective, especially when it comes to protecting themselves. Well on second thought, most of them are mouth breathers, so the nose is only there to pick.

While everyone wearing an N95 mask would better, a certain segment of the population thinks that they can't possibly submit to such tyranny, so the recommendation is to at least wear something.

Now you can throw out all the prior data showing masks help because we don't have long term studies on covid 19. Or you can use that data to assume there will be at least some benefit of wearing a mask to help prevent COVID-19.

I really do think it's just a hoax...Dr. Fauci really wants to trick a bunch of stupid hillbillies into wearing a mask...about as much as Bill Gates really wants to track a bunch of stupid hillbillies with his vaccine-chip.

Fish on...

Todd

I felt sorry for Palin when she first came on the scene. Her entrance into the race started with an impressive speech, but it quickly went downhill from there.

It was unfair to her to be thrown into something she was so obviously under qualified to do.

After that she sold out and was just used as a celebrity to attract a crowd of not so bright fans. She said almost anything that would keep her in the spotlight and making money, and that's how she was marketed.

Using what someone else might do to justify the gutless and low-down things you are doing is a strange flex.

But you do your Dark Side thing, and I'll pay my Dark Side bets like those that aren't bet welchers do.

You made the bet. Deal with it.

Or don't, and join Welchster and WELCH G. in that other category.

Again, as already mentioned.

You don't "know" you don't have it, not having symptoms doesn't mean you're not positive. Testing negative today doesn't mean you won't test positive tomorrow.

Not spewing your spittle on the rest of us reduces the potential for others possibly being infected.

The people that think they're far smarter than the actual experts on infectious diseases think none of it is true because it doesn't fit into the reality and facts they "want or need" to believe.

Those in charge know this segment needs a way to show how smart they are by not following the recommendations of the real experts. So letting them wear a bandana and show they can't be intimidated by a hoax disease or caught doing something for the social good, is felt to be better than nothing.


This whole approach to limiting the spread has been dumbed down to accommodate those that can't, or won't follow simple precautions.

My brother in law and sister both tested positive this week, to top it off she tested positive for breast cancer on the same day.

Sorry to hear about your sister.

Lest you all forget Cleveland steamer came up with Bingo Wings, that in and of itself should allow him a lifetime pass to the dark side.

Sorry to hear. Fingers crossed for a quick recovery.

-FishDam

I have a feeling a few gems were missed... clouded by political hatred. It’s all good though.

-FishDam

It’s not like I was trying to hide it. Ripping on illshee was a pretty dead giveaway. Anyone with half a brain could figure it out. Sad thing was Sheepshee The Evo Leftie was the one who noticed it first. Doesn’t reflect very good on you.

-FishDam

There are plenty of credible sources to get information on Covid other than Chehalis WalMart or Barrier Dam.

Such shytty news for you and your family! My condolences.

Sorry to hear this Jody, hoping for positive outcomes to her.

I started off during this pandemic partially afflicted by all the fear mongering, and rightfully skeptic about the claims. I soon took it seriously and have had a hard time watching natural selection affect those who dont. Inside and outside my own family. One truth about the 'rona is, it helped everyone see how smart or f*cking stupid their friends and family really are.

I got my second shot Wednesday, after being a anti vaxxer of sorts to begin with.

I now have a really good fishing buddy who many of you know where who is only 36, Strong and healthy, who is hospitalized with Covid. Super low 02 levels and im praying for him and his family every day. TBH, he was one of the non believers to begin with, and I bet that tube strapped to his face has altered some thoughts over the last week. It's been a tough ride for him.

Moral is, if you think this is a Hoax and wanna parade around without a mask on, you'll very likely soon find out the hard way you were wrong.

You go ahead and play natural selection roulette. I want no part of it. I'm going fishing.

I hope your sister and brother in law get through this well. My wife's friend came over last weekend and she just had breast cancer surgery last month. She may have to do chemo.

My mother in law got the virus last year at her assisted living facility and was just diagnosed with lung cancer. We're going to see her next weekend. Seems that the virus made her memory worse.

I honestly expected a better response from you, this was right out of the denier handbook.

Your logic as presented is.
Since this is a brand new virus, and we haven't had time to accumulate data or review it, I can make up my own rules and believe anything I want.

The data is there for the effectiveness of maskes in general and for other diseases, so is distancing and taking other precautions.

You can throw out all that data and consider it useless, or error on the safe side and do the unthinkable... by wearing a proper mask.

It appears you purposely avoid much of the data because it doesn't agree with your preconceived opinions.

Being skeptical is fine, but don't be stupid while doing it.

And the box you pointed to is part of the dumbing down needed to help some people be a bit safer. And I'm hoping you're smart enough to understand why anything over your mouth and nose is better than nothing.

Here's my last two weeks of cowering in fear.

I was in Butte MT, SLC UT, St George UT, Las Vegas, Palm Springs, Riverside CA, then back north on the same route. Plus worked with customers and in our lab for a week.

I hiked in Zion National Park, Kolob Canyon, Valley of Fire state park, Capitol Reef NP, Joshua Tree National Park, Mohave National Preserve, plus a couple places in the hills around Riverside CA. I was going to stop by Yellowstone on the way back but the temps were around zero in the park.

Also arranged a future fishing trip in Flaming Gorge with a customer.

I have my shots and out of common courtesy used a KN95 mask at all times in public places, with customers, and in the lab.

It's terrible how the "MAN" is controlling my life, I can't actually believe how oppressed I am by wearing a mask.

I don’t think anyone here is denying that masks offer some level of protection against the virus. I also don’t think it takes a scientist to determine that any type of barrier is better than nothing. With that said, the effectiveness of masks is what is debatable because the very limited science does in fact say masks offer protection against the virus but that it is minimal. I don’t mind wearing masks in certain situations, but in others it certainly is bit extreme and can be an inconvenience.

The problem most people have is the research suggests limited effectiveness at best, yet instead of masks being recommended they are mandated. My guess is there would only be a slightly lower compliance rate if masks were recommended verses mandated. Most reasonable people will wear masks when appropriate and not wear them when it isn’t necessary. People should have the ability to exercise their own discretion instead of being forced to comply with arbitrary rules that are rooted in limited science and do not provide a measurable difference.

Most importantly to note, mask effectiveness is maximized through proper usage and hygiene practices. Most people shove the mask in their pocket when not needed and forego washing their hands. They will also touch their masks to adjust without hand washing as well. Practices such as these nullify the benefits the mask is intended to provide.

-FishDam/Streamer

People use the results of the least effective masks to imply all masks provide minimal protection.

Yes, a bandana provides minimal effectiveness compared to an N95. It seems very easy to understand a mask designed for this purpose would perform much better than a snot rag.

A surgical type mask was never designed for this purpose either, so obviously it won't perform as well, but is better than a bandana or nothing.

This ain't hard folks, but some people make it that way.

I'd go for that, but even a bandana is difficult for many people.

The bandana group tends to forget they have a nose.

Or move to Utah, if you listen to the locals covid doesn't exist there.

I frequent a hotel chain that is rather strict on masks, even in Utah. Plus they claim to do extra cleaning. Weekends in tourist areas are crowded now, but weekdays the hotels are empty.

The National Parks were full of very safety compliant people.

I travel alone in the car, so that's fine.

Most of the meals were take-out, or I bought groceries and prepared it in the room.

I ate inside at one restaurant in Utah, again, covid doesn't exist there, so it was safe.

"My convenience and desire to be anti-most things is far more important than possibly someone's life".

Good on you.

Because America has a large population of dumbfucks it will be necessary to carry a shot record.
You will need to prove you have been vaccinated to fly, concerts or any large gathering.
That way the dipsh1ts can be all free and independent at home.

That of course is bullshitt. Plenty of people who had covid-19 and recovered are allowed and even encouraged to get vaccinated.

People who had covid-19 and recovered get much stronger immunity after being vaccinated.

As far as the variants go, we will see. Early evidence shows at least the Pfizer vaccine being pretty effective against variants.

As mentioned, people that have had covid and recovered have been told they should get the shot.

Lots of dumbfuckery coming from one source.

But mUh fReeDumHs!

Actual conservatives...fukk everyone, my convenience...and then there are Libertarians...but I repeat myself.

They are all GQP.

My buddy has now been in ICU since Sunday. Be an idiot and get exposed at your own peril. He's only 38, healthy and that last person you'd think would be affected by Covid. Goes to show anyone can get really sick from this chit

Why do you hate 'Merica so much?

Fish on...

Todd

P.S. Sorry to hear about your buddy, I hope his condition improves.

Sorry to hear that, Sky-Guy. That sucks.

One of my best friend's brother died from Covid a couple months ago. He completely bought into the hoax bullshitt the "previous guy" spewed and now he's dead and my friend's life has been fuckked over as well. Stupid may not hurt until you have tubes crammed down your throat in the ICU.

Sad to hear that Sky-Guy.

Another fisherman that many here may know has a young granddaughter that had covid. She recovered from a mild case quickly, now shortly after recovering she has strange symptoms of something that the specialists can't figure out. She's been in and out of the hospital for testing and seeing specialist, but no answers yet.

LOL...now The Nuge has the hoax.

Weird, I would have thought he would schit down his leg again, and run in circles raving, and it would have left him alone...maybe shot himself in the lung with a crossbow to kill it.

"Ted Nugent—the right-wing singer who’s spent the past year boring on about his ridiculous coronavirus and anti-vaccine conspiracy theories—has announced that he’s fallen badly sick with COVID-19. Since the pandemic began last year, Nugent has described it as a “scam,” ridiculed mask-wearers as “sheep,” and proudly announced that he would never take a coronavirus vaccine. But he changed his tune in a Facebook live on Monday when he complained to viewers: “I have had flu symptoms for the last 10 days. I thought I was dying. Just a clusterfuck. I was tested positive today. I got the Chinese [Bleeeeep!]. I’ve got a stuffed up head, body aches. My God, what a pain in the ass. I literally could hardly crawl out of bed the last few days.”

Is the trumpvirus worse than Cat Scratch Fever..?

Maybe he can make a song...

Regardless, Stranglehold is still one of the best songs. Ever.

The virus has a Stranglehold on Ted.

Forgot about this gem from last week, before he caught the hoax...

"“I guess I would ask you, because I’m addicted to truth, logic and common sense, and my common sense meter would demand the answer to: Why weren’t we shut down for Covid 1 through 18?”"

Ted's real smart.

"Nugent said last Monday on Facebook, apparently unaware the “19” is for 2019, the year the virus was first discovered."

Ted has been shooing off his mouth for his entire life and it has worked out very well for him. He needs to stick to playing guitar and banging teenagers and leave the complex stuff to those of us that are not so lucky to do whatever we want and end up a rock and roll legend.

Yeah, I laughed too when I read that Ted caught the hoax. What a clown. Looks like stupid hurt this time, too.

Hey Ted, ya dead, mon?

I've long held that belief mydamnself.
